Demam berdarah dengue (DBD) merupakan penyakit yang disebabkan oleh virus dengue dan disebarkan melalui gigitan nyamuk Aedes spp. Hingga saat ini, pengendalian populasi Aedes spp. merupakan satu-satunya cara untuk mencegah kejadian luar biasa penularan dengue. Kasus DBD tertinggi di Kota Tasikmalaya hingga Juli 2015 terjadi di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kahuripan (63 kasus) dan terendah di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Bungursari (1 kasus). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan analisis faktor lingkungan (karakteristik habitat, suhu, dan kelembapan) dan inang (perilaku manusia) dengan keberadaan larva Aedes spp pada wilayah kasus DBD tertinggi di Kelurahan Cikalang (wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kahuripan) dan terendah di Kelurahan Cibunigeulis (wilayah kerja Puskesmas Bungursari) di Kota Tasikmalaya. Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian observasional deskriptif analitik dengan metode potong-lintang. Sampel di Kelurahan Cikalang dan Cibunigeulis sebanyak masing-masing 100 rumah. Pada setiap rumah, dilakukan pengambilan larva, identifikasi habitat yang meliputi jenis kontainer, letak, bahan, sumber air, pengurasan 1 minggu terakhir, kondisi penutup, penaburan temefos, pemeliharaan ikan, perkiraan volume, suhu dan pH air, serta wawancara terstruktur terhadap masyarakat menggunakan kuesioner di kedua wilayah. Selain itu, dilakukan juga wawancara mendalam terhadap Kasi P2M, pemegang program DBD di Dinas Kesehatan dan puskesmas, serta tokoh masyarakat dimasing-masing kelurahan. Identifikasi larva dilakukan di laboratorium penelitian kesehatan Loka Litbang P2B2 Ciamis.
Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan bahwa nilai house index (HI), container index (CI), dan breteau index (BI) di Cikalang sebesar 14%, 6,4%, dan 16 dengan gambaran kepadatan (density figure) pada kategori sedang. Adapun di Cibunigeulis, nilai HI, CI, dan BI sebesar 3%, 0,9%, dan 3 dengan gambaran kepadatan pada kategori rendah. Jenis larva yang didapatkan dari penelitian ini seluruhnya Aedes aegypti. Faktor lingkungan yang berhubungan dengan keberadaan larva Aedes sp di Cikalang yaitu jenis kontainer, volume, pengurasan, dan penaburan temefos, sedangkan di Cibunigeulis adalah jenis kontainer. Hasil uji multivariat memperlihatkan faktor sumber air PAM (p=0,021, OR=13,786) dan pengurasan (p=0,001, OR=0,101) memiliki risiko terhadap keberadaan larva, namun tidak satupun faktor berisiko di Cibunigeulis. Berdasarkan faktor inang (perilaku manusia, yaitu pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik), hanya praktik (p=0,029, OR=0,238) dalam pengendalian DBD yang memiliki risiko terhadap keberadaan larva Ae. aegypti di Cikalang
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Evaluasi Sistem Surveilans Demam Berdarah Dengue di Kota Tasikmalaya
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) has spread across all districts/cities in Indonesia, including in Tasikmalaya City as an endemic area. We conducted a mixed-methods study to evaluate surveillance system for dengue hemorrhagic fever in Tasikmalaya City. Qualitative data collection with in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. This research was conducted in the Tasikmalaya City Health Office’s work area from April to November 2018. Surveillance data through the hospital’s early warning report to the Tasikmalaya City Health Office mostly reported more than 24 hours. Completeness of reporting from RSU Dr. Soekarjo was 65.96% and TMC Hospital was 92%. There was a significant relationship between the presence of larvae and dengue cases (p-value = 0.001). It can be concluded that the accuracy and completeness of the hospital’s early warning report to the Tasikmalaya City Health Office was still relatively low due to the implementation of information system have not been integrated, DHF surveillance officers at both hospitals and puskesmas had double duty, lack of surveillance socialization/training for officers, and the lack of strengthening of accurately reporting at the management level and across sectors
PENGETAHUAN FILARIASIS DAN PENGGUNAAN OBAT GOSOK PENGUSIR NYAMUK DI WILAYAH ENDEMIS FILARIASIS
ABSTRACT
The uses of repellent are an effort to prevent mosquito bites in the community. Therefore, a study was conducted to find out the difference in the level of knowledge with the use of repellent/liniment on people in areas that received the Filariasis Mass Prevention Drug Program. This research is the result of secondary data analysis from multicenter research "Filariasis elimination evaluation study" in 2017 conducted in Subang district, West Java Province. Total respondents surveyed were 555 people. The respondents were the people who received mass drug administration. The data collected respondent’s knowledge about the cause and transmitter of filariasis diseases and the repellent use activity of respondents. This study used chi-square analysis to see the relationship between knowledge and the use of repellent in respondents. The results showed that a total of 307 (55.3%) respondents stated they were using liniment / repellent drugs; and 248 (44.7%) respondents did not use repellent. There is a difference in the level of knowledge of respondents with filariasis (p <0.05) between respondents who use repellent and those who do not. This study concludes that the higher respondents' knowledge, the greater their tendency to use repellent. Knowledge about the spread and causes of filariasis was related to the use of repellent in the community.

ABSTRAK
Penggunaan Repelen adalah suatu usaha untuk mencegah gigitan nyamuk di masyarakat. Sehingga dilakukan studi yang bertujuan untuk mencari perbedaan tingkat pengetahuan antara masyarakat yang memakai dan tidak memakai repelen/obat gosok di daerah yang menerima program eliminasi filariasis. Artikel ini merupakan analisis data sekunder dari riset multisenter Studi evaluasi eliminasi filariasis tahun 2017 yang dilakukan di kabupaten Subang, provinsi Jawa barat. Responden adalah sampel masyarakat di daerah program Pemberian Obat Pencegahan Massal filarias yang berjumlah 555 orang. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi pengetahuan responden terhadap penyakit filariasis (penyebab dan penenular) dan perilaku penggunaan repelen. Untuk mengetahui hubungan tingkat pengetahuan dengan pemakaian obat gosok repelen dilakukan dengan analisis bivariat chi-square. Hasil menunjukkan, dari 555 responden; sebanyak 307 (55,3%) responden menyatakan bahwa mereka memakai obat gosok /repelen; dan 248 (44,7%) responden tidak memakai repelen. Terdapat perbedaan tingkat pengetahuan responden penyakit filariasis (p< 0,05) antara responden yang memakai repelen dengan yang tidak memakai. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa semakin tinggi pengetahuan terhadap penyakit filariasis, maka semakin besar kecenderungan responden memakai repelen.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
